    • Trivia
      Tim Thomerson was originally slated to play Harry Fontana.
    • Quotes

      Harry Fontana: What is this? Some kinda comic book? We got robots, we got cave men, we got kung fu!

    • Alternate versions
      In the UK versions the nunchuck scene when Kuji meets Nora & Harry is cut. In the 1986 EIV Video (cut by 31 secs) the scene is completely missing. The later 1995 NTV video featured a longer print and the introduction of the weapon can be seen, though 10 secs were removed from the rest of the sequence.

    So-bad-it's-good lighthearted adventure
    Rated as a movie, this deserves about a 2. Rated by how much fun you will have watching it, it deserves about a 7.

    If it took itself seriously it wouldn't be much fun, but fortunately it has a light touch. A man who is half machine, the "mandroid" John Doe, goes on a quest to find and kill the mad scientist who installed the half-machine part. Joining him are a scientist (Denise Crosby), an R2D2 wannabe, an Indiana Jones wannabe, and a ninja! Along the way, there are boat chases, a barroom brawl, inept bad guys, Roman soldiers, and goofy physical comedy. Roy Dotrice makes a fun villain.

    If it sounds like it might be fun to you, give it a try.
